At the RV Park we are staying at one of our neighbors brought home a new 3295RK this past weekend. On the cabinet next to the microwave there is a switch. He said that he was told by the dealer that the microwave and hot water heater are on the same circuit in the 3295RK and that if he was using the hot water heater on electric he couldnít use the microwave at the same time. This switch is supposed to be moved up to use the microwave and down to use the hot water heater. Can this be right?

Why have 50 amp service and then put these two heavy electricity users on the same circuit? Why put the water heater in the kitchen slide?

I remember a switch like that in our 1993 Wilderness with a 30A hookup. It is truly unusual to think they still need to do that with a 50A+50A. I've had 2 ACs + HW + Micro + Washer + Dryer going with no problem.

Maybe it's a carryover in design from the 2003 30A days and they just haven't changed it yet.

Grant,
I have a 2005 3670 Big Sky with the microwave and fireplace in the same slide. There is a switch next to the microwave that has to be switched so you can only use one at a time.I presumed that they couldn't or wouldn't run another line to the slide so both could run. Isn't that a beauty!

My '05 3295RK has the same switch and it is for the fireplace and the microwave--one position turns off the microwave & turns on the fireplace---the other position revereses the process--you can't have but one at a time on--
